No question, those are 'foolies' installed. 18' Sunraders were included in the recall, if anyone tries to tell you they weren't.And if anyone tries to tell you that they've lasted this long, here a a couple of pictures (both Sunraders) to show them:-
Yikes! Thanks for sharing the pics. I found the recall info and the axle info to share with them but I bet they will play dumb and I'm a terrible negotiator.

It looks decently clean. It definitely needs a full build in my opinion! I'd be afraid to even drive it home on that axle but I'm overly cautious. Mind if I ask the asking price? I see the exterior of the window trim looking very gummed up. I'm sure someone probably attempted a leak fix.
See if you can get some photos sent of the frame under the truck before making the long drive and finding a rust pit when you get there. I'd say the bottom is probably clean since the cab doesn't show any signs of rust where it normally shows.
They have it listed at 6K. I noticed that gummy stuff around the windows too, which makes me cringe. I'll hate to but should probably walk away if has a lot of evidence of leaks/rotting. I don't want a full build project. I'll ask about an under cab pic. Thanks for the tips!

Hi all, I found a Shorty about a days drive from me at a reseller that is closed today so I can't get anymore info yet but I thought I'd share the pics and ask for your input. It's hard to tell from the pics but someone pointed out it has the 5 lug rear axle so I plan to try to negotiate the cost if possible, because it will need the axle swap. Other than that, are there any red flags jumping out at you that I should be aware of or does anybody know this Shorty? I have a list of questions to ask and want to request more pics and a video walk through that includes the engine running if possible. They are asking 6K and the only description so far is " 1983 Toyota Motorhome for sale. Gas. Clean title. Tires good. Has bathroom with shower. Sleep area over cab. Gas stove. Sink. U- shaped sofa". Shortys are not easy to come across in my area so I'm looking hard at this one but if it doesn't work out, I will travel for one in great original shape and pay more for it, within reason.

You bought it? It was beautiful. I was very tempted but so far away. Please tell us how that gas tank is hooked up. Is it an extra one or did they replace the original.

Hi Linda, No I didn't buy it. I really want to stay compact. I'm holding out for a Shorty Sunrader! Still looking!

Well I just told a member here he should sell his similar model for 35 grand. These guys don't know what they have. It's not big. It's 1 foot longer than my Sunrader. What a screaming deal.
Linda S
So you think this one is about 22 ft long?

Man I want that!! Great price!
It's just too big for me. I'm looking to stay compact. If it was a Sunrader I'd be all over it but then again, it wouldn't be that price either!

I came across this today in my search for a Sunrader and thought I'd shard since I know 4x4's are desirable by many. I'm looking for a 2x4 Shorty Sunrader but would love to hear if there is feedback on this vehicle. Little by little, I learn from reading the discussions here! https://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Tacoma-Motorhome-Deluxe-Leisure-Odyssey-Conversion-Motor-Home-4X4/202409889803?hash=item2f2091d00b:g:B38AAOSwXl9be4rC

Hi Mark, I'm researching this topic. Did you purchase a backup camera you'd recommend?
